Uverse Internet signup with Earthlink DSL

Uverse Internet signup with Earthlink DSL

I just signed up for Uverse internet with self install online. I currently have Earthlink DSL, and got a message during signup I needed to cancel the Earthlink DSL. Do I need to cancel my Earthlink service now, or will I be notified a date to have it canceled by? I have only gotten the order confirmation email so far.

Yes it appears that way. I also plan to cancel my ATT home phone (POTS). I wonder if I can even cancel it without removing the Earthlink DSLfirst? I know the DSL will not work without the phone service.

I found this on Earthlinks Website:

Do I need to have home phone service to get EarthLink DSL? In most locations, DSL service requires that you have an active home phone line. In locations where Verizon provides local phone service, we are able to offer what we call Freestanding DSL. This money-saving option gives you broadband Internet access without an active phone line. Enter your address and phone number on the main DSL or Internet Access page of this site to see your DSL availability options

Having service trouble? There is an app for that! Use our troubleshooting tool or text myATT to 8758 to download the app. It is much faster than posting on our forums. You will also find some helpful articles below.
